Protect your lab technicians from live SARS-CoV-2 virus and your lab from scrutiny with USA made and FDA cleared Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM Inactivating Transport Medium.
Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM is clinically proven to effectively inactivate all traces of live SARS-CoV-2 virus as reported in this JCM Accepted Manuscript Posted Online August 24th, 2020 which concluded:
"" However, infectious virus remained recoverable in treated samples after inactivation with most reagents tested (by either TCID50 or blind passage).
The exceptions to this were PrimeStore MTM and 4M GITC, from which no residual virus was detectable by either TCID50 or by the passaging of treated purified sample. While several contact times were evaluated for all these reagents, length of contact time had no effect on either the level of virus titer reduction or whether virus remained detectable upon passage.""
Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM is the ONLY FDA cleared Class II device for both DNA and RNA on the market.
Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM is sold in packs of fifty tubes and available in several different size options to accommodate the widest range of liquid extraction robotic systems.
Each tube is 40mm in length and contains 1mL of Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM
Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM is extremely stable and loses none of its potency even when subjected to extreme temperature conditions and rapid temperature change.
An in-house test compared the potency of Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM to Saline after an NP swab sample had been placed in each and stored at 38C - 100.4F).
They were tested at 24 and 48 hours using a QuantaBio qPCR instrument following the CDC's COVID-19 assay.
The saline sample exhibited a 1000x reduction in signal compared with the Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM sample.
Better Ct values, better stability, better performance - Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM is the inactivating transport medium for clinical and research laboratories who want to ensure the best results for their patients.
Longhorn PrimeStore® MTM is not for use with the Hologic Panthera or any other extraction platform which uses a final bleach wash.
